Chapter 324 This time, I'm going to get my revenge no matter what!
A sudden dizziness.
The illusory soul was expelled from the void and returned to the physical body.
"Heh heh."
Xiao Bai suddenly opened his eyes, breathing heavily, his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.
Just now, he sensed a soul resonance in the void. With a thought, his soul power perceived Xun'er's aura. Out of curiosity, he followed the inexplicable feeling and tried using the Tai Chi diagram under his feet.
It took him almost all of his soul power to achieve that fleeting glimpse.
Unexpectedly, the moment he saw Xun'er, an overwhelming and unstoppable force descended, seemingly trying to force its way into the void space along with the fleeting phantom of the Tai Chi diagram.
At the last moment, the entire void trembled slightly, and a repulsive force, seemingly divine intervention, appeared, interrupting the person's observation and simultaneously expelling him from the space.
Sitting cross-legged in the star field, Xiao Bai recalled the figure he had glimpsed in the last flash of lightning. He couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, take a deep breath of the cool air, and suppress the trembling in his heart.
"Ancient Clan Chief, Gu Yuanyao."
He murmured softly, and there stood a figure in the void, his white robe fluttering without wind, his face shrouded in a faint halo, making it impossible to see clearly.
That brief eye contact made him truly feel the terror of the Emperor Realm.
Just looking at him with a pair of eyes devoid of joy or sorrow, the overwhelming sense of oppression, even across the void, still made his soul tremble!
As starlight fell, Xiao Bai slowly rose, glanced at the quietly burning sea of fire around him, pondered for a moment, then flicked his finger, sending a wisp of purplish-black flame landing at the spot where the Three Thousand Blazing Flames had fallen.
The sea of fire in the star field seemed to have found a king, swarming towards this flickering flame, swirling around it like stars surrounding the moon.
Whether you can grow into an independent strange flame depends on your destiny. Consider this a return for the kindness shown by the Pill Tower!
The sound echoed through the silent star field, and Xiao Bai's figure slowly disappeared.
Saint Dan City.
The prosperity remains.
On this day, the sky suddenly changed.
Suddenly, a huge Tai Chi pattern appeared in the originally clear sky, with gold and silver colors intertwined and slowly rotating, as if it contained the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.
A vast aura emanated from it, enveloping the entire city. Countless people looked up in awe.
"What is that?"
"Could it be that a powerful figure from the Pill Tower is using some kind of secret technique?"
"No, that sky is the forbidden area of the Pill Tower, the location of the star field!"
Within the Pill Tower, numerous powerful figures emerged, their expressions solemn as they gazed at the sky.
The three giants, Xuan Kongzi, Tian Leizi, and Xuan Yi, noticed the anomaly immediately, their eyes flashing with surprise and doubt.
"The star field has long been sealed, how could there still be such anomalies?" Xuan Kongzi frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Could it be Xiao Bai?" Xuan Yi's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she murmured softly.
More than half a year ago, Xiao Bai entered the star field and then disappeared without a trace. Now, this sudden Tai Chi phenomenon is very likely related to him!
In a quiet courtyard in the Dan Tower, a little fairy doctor dressed in white stood quietly, gazing up at the strange phenomenon in the sky.
Her eyes trembled slightly, and a joyful smile unconsciously curved her lips.
"Is it finally over?!"
Her slender fingers clenched gently, and an overwhelming surge of excitement welled up inside her.
After waiting for more than half a year, the result is finally here!
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and surprise, the Tai Chi diagram in the sky suddenly shrank, and the golden and silver light gradually receded, eventually transforming into a tiny point of light, and then—
"Buzz!"
The space trembled slightly, and a tall, slender figure stepped out from the void.
His hair was as black as ink, his robes fluttered in the wind, and his deep eyes seemed to hold the stars. His aura was restrained, yet he gave people a sense of unfathomable depth.
His appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Greetings, three presidents!"
"Little guy, did you absorb some kind of strange fire or the sun? Why are you surrounded by golden light?!"
Xuan Yi was stunned for a moment, then a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. Seeing the faint golden light emanating from his body, which was extremely hot and violent, he couldn't help but tease him.
"Senior Xuan Yi, you flatter me. I've just come out and am still adjusting!"
Xiao Bai smiled, looked up at the huge fireball in the sky, and a ray of silver light flashed across his body, cutting off the scorching sunlight that was constantly drilling into his body.
"Looks like you've taken care of that scourge!"
Sensing his rapidly increasing cultivation level, a glint flashed in Xuan Kongzi's eyes.
Xiao Bai nodded, then smiled mysteriously, his lips moving slightly as he transmitted a few words to Xuan Kongzi and the other two.
"real?"
The three people's eyes lit up instantly. They exchanged glances, then closed their eyes, and their powerful soul energy merged into the void.
"noob!"
A white figure flashed over and landed beside Xiao Bai. Her beautiful eyes looked him up and down, and seeing that he was unharmed and his beautiful face was exquisite, she finally smiled with relief.
Looking at the little fairy doctor in front of him, a tenderness appeared in Xiao Bai's eyes.
After being separated for more than half a year, her aura became more restrained, and her strength had obviously improved.
I'm sorry to have worried you.
Little Fairy Doctor shook her head slightly, took his arm with her cool little hand, blinked her beautiful eyes, and smiled playfully:
Let's go!
Xiao Bai nodded with a smile, his gaze almost imperceptibly sweeping in a certain direction. He clearly felt two distinctly different gazes still fixed on his back—
One was like a hunter spotting his prey, the other as cold and venomous as a snake.
As his gaze swept over her, Xiao Bai was slightly taken aback. Her alluring eyes seemed to be extremely interested in him, and he felt a little puzzled.
Suddenly feeling a tightening around her waist, she instantly understood what was happening. Calmly shifting her gaze, she glanced indifferently at Song Qing and ignored her.
Golden sunlight streamed down the streets of Saint Dan City as Xiao Bai and Little Fairy Doctor walked side by side.
"Aren't you very proud of yourself?" Little Fairy Doctor suddenly said softly, with a hint of sourness in her voice.
Xiao Bai turned his head to look and saw that Xiao Yixian's fair profile was almost transparent in the sunlight, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow, concealing the emotions in her eyes.
He couldn't help but chuckle, and gently took her slender fingers in his hand.
"What's wrong, are you jealous?" Xiao Bai deliberately leaned close to her ear and whispered, his warm breath brushing against her ear.
The tips of Little Fairy Doctor's ears instantly flushed red. She gently tried to pull her hand away, but didn't actually pull it out.
"I don't mind, but," she deliberately drawled, her beautiful eyes teasing, "as long as someone isn't afraid of Xun'er's temper!"
"!" Xiao Bai.
The image of those emotionless eyes flashed through his mind, and he instantly shivered.
My father-in-law is too fierce; I can't afford to mess with him!
The two walked hand in hand through the bustling streets and arrived at a quiet courtyard in Danta.
The courtyard is shaded by green trees, with an ancient ginkgo tree standing in the center, its golden leaves falling in the wind and covering the bluestone path.
Little Fairy Doctor led Xiao Bai through the courtyard to an elegant side room.
As Xiao Bai stepped into the room, a faint medicinal fragrance wafted towards him.
The room was simply furnished, but traces of the Little Fairy Doctor's life could be seen everywhere—herbs drying on the windowsill, prescription notes neatly arranged on the desk, and a small sachet hanging by the bed.
"Has Elder Yao returned to the Jia Ma Empire?" Xiao Bai sat down at the table and took the teacup handed to him by Little Fairy Doctor.
Little Fairy Doctor nodded and sat down opposite him: "Last time you sent Cao Ying back with a message, he set off the very next day."
She paused, then took out an exquisite jade box from her storage ring.
"Oh right, this is what I found recently."
Xiao Bai took the jade box and gently opened it. Inside lay a dark purple demon core with peculiar patterns on its surface, emitting a faint, sweet-smelling, metallic scent.
"The magic core of the Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast?"
Xiao Bai's eyes lit up. He carefully took it out and examined it in his palm. "Where did you find it?"
"At the auction in Saint Pill City." Little Fairy Doctor smiled, clearly very happy about the matter.
Xiao Bai carefully examined the demon core, his brows gradually furrowing. He circulated his soul power to probe deeper, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
"What's wrong?" Little Fairy Doctor noticed his unusual behavior and asked somewhat uneasily.
Xiao Bai sighed, "This magic core must have been hunted a long time ago. Although it's well-preserved, some of its energy has still been lost, but that's not the most crucial point."
He pointed to several tiny cracks on the surface of the magic core. "This magic core wouldn't be a big problem if used for alchemy, but I'm not comfortable using it to solve your physical problems!"
Little Fairy Doctor blinked, a hint of disappointment flashing across her face, but she quickly smiled again:
"It's okay. Having one is already a rare thing. It's better than having none."
Xiao Bai shook his head and put the magic core back into the jade box: "No, it concerns your safety, we can't compromise."
He pondered for a moment, a decisive look flashing in his eyes, "Do you remember Luoshen Gorge? Let's go there first thing tomorrow morning."
Just to be on the safe side, Xiao Bai decided to use the one from the original story.
Just as the two were discussing their itinerary, a soft footstep suddenly came from outside the courtyard.
Xiao Bai scanned the person with his soul power and immediately recognized their identity, then stood up to greet them.
"Senior in black robes."
Xiao Bai opened the door and saw a man in a blue robe standing under the ginkgo tree in the courtyard.
Xuan Yi turned around, a gentle smile on his face: "Xiao Bai, did I disturb you?"
Little Fairy Doctor quickly stood up and bowed, but Xuan Yi waved his hand, saying, "No need for formalities. I'm here on behalf of the three of us old folks to thank Xiao Bai."
She looked at Xiao Bai and said, "We saw the wisp of fire you left behind. It is absorbing the flame energy that has been dissipating from the entire star field. In the future, it may really have a chance to grow into a new prototype of the Three Thousand Burning Flames."
Xiao Bai smiled slightly: "I just feel that the star field has a special environment, and it would be a pity to leave it unused. It is my honor to be able to help the Pill Tower."
A hint of admiration flashed in Xuan Yi's eyes: "So young, yet not only is his talent astonishing, he also knows how to handle people. That old fellow Yao Chen has good taste."
Looking at the beautiful woman who treated him well, Xiao Bai's heart stirred. He invited Xuan Yi to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said:
"Senior, would you like to know the whereabouts of Elder Yao?"
A startling light flashed in Xuan Yi's eyes, and he seemed to have become ten years younger:
Where is he?
Her gaze was fixed on Xiao Bai, and her fingers unconsciously tightened around the hem of her clothes.
Seeing this, Xiao Bai's lips curled into a meaningful smile:
"If you wish to see him, you can make a trip to Burning Flame Valley; you will surely gain something from it."
"Burning Flame Valley!!"
Xuan Yi stood up abruptly, turned around and left: "Little fellow, I'll remember this favor!"
Before the words were even finished, the figure in black had already transformed into a streak of azure light and soared into the sky, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Bai looked in the direction she had left and couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"It seems that Elder Yao is going to be living off a woman this time. With her status and the resources of the Pill Tower, she won't have to worry about the materials needed for resurrection."
As the sun sets and night falls, countless stars appear in the sky, like jewels adorning black silk.
"The moon is so round tonight."
Little Fairy Doctor looked up at the full moon in the sky, the silvery moonlight shining on her delicate face, making her look like a fairy under the moon.
Xiao Bai, however, was not in the mood for appreciation. He leaped onto the roof, sat cross-legged, and took a deep breath:
"This is the perfect time for cultivation."
He closed his eyes, his soul power continuously extending upwards, and a strange feeling instantly surged into his heart.
With each breath, strands of silvery-white moonlight were absorbed into his body as if they were tangible.
Little Fairy Doctor watched this scene in surprise, not daring to disturb it, and simply sat quietly to the side to guard it.
She could feel the surrounding temperature slowly dropping, and a cool energy permeating the air.
Xiao Bai's consciousness sank into his dantian, where a miniature Tai Chi diagram slowly rotated.
The anode is golden, and lightning surges within it; that is the divine lightning that vanquishes evil.
The cathode, which was originally just a pale silver color, is now absorbing the Yin energy falling from the sky and gradually becoming more solid.
"It really works!"
Xiao Bai's eyes lit up with surprise. This was the inspiration he had gained from the Evil-Slaying Divine Lightning attracting the sun's rays when he left the star field.
The anode was suppressed by the evil-slaying divine thunder, which could be directly absorbed, but the cathode was empty, leaving him somewhat uncertain.
However, this time it was confirmed that the Three Thousand Burning Flames' reputation for absorbing the power of stars was well-deserved. After absorbing this strange flame, his perception of the stars was incomparable to what it used to be.
Silently guiding the power of the moonlight, he could feel that with each bit of Yin energy he absorbed, the balance of the Taiji diagram within his body became more stable, and his cultivation level also improved accordingly.
Time passes, the moon moves and the stars shift.
As the first light of dawn appeared in the east, Xiao Bai finally opened his eyes.
Surprisingly, his pupils were no longer the usual clear black and white, but were completely filled with a silvery radiance, like two small moons set in his eye sockets.
Little Fairy Doctor had kept watch all night, but there was no sign of fatigue on her face. When she saw this scene, her beautiful eyes shone brightly.
Yesterday, Xiaobai was incredibly masculine, but today he exudes a feminine aura, which is truly amazing.
The silver light in Xiao Bai's eyes gradually faded, returning to normal, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face:
"Hmm, the Yin energy has accumulated to a certain level. It seems that it won't be long before I can attempt to break through to the Dou Zun realm!"
He stood up, stretched his stiff limbs, and then extended his hand to Little Fairy Doctor: "Let's go, get ready, we're going to Falling God Gorge today."
Little Fairy Doctor grasped his hand, using it for support to stand up: "So urgent?"
"I can only feel at ease if you resolve your afflictive disease as soon as possible."
Xiao Bai looked at her earnestly and gently, and smiled:
"Besides, Xun'er should be arriving soon. Don't you want to surpass her in cultivation?"
"Xun'er?"
Little Fairy Doctor's eyes lit up with surprise. When she left last time, Little Fairy Doctor was still in seclusion. It felt like she hadn't seen Little Fairy Doctor for a long time.
"Hurry, let's go to Falling God Gorge and Elder Yao's place. I wonder if we've gotten the Bodhi Incarnation Saliva yet!"
Little Fairy Doctor pulled Xiao Bai away, her eyes filled with fighting spirit. That girl Xun'er never really cultivated, yet her cultivation level always surpassed hers. This time, she was determined to get her revenge!
